Day 12: “Weapon Change”

Ever wanted to see Zane/Ryo in the Red Dorm? Or Alexis/Asuka duel with dragons? Get creative today with dorm swaps and deck swaps!

@gxmonth

((I love those fics where it’s like, “everything is the same except Jaden is a ____ with a ____ deck. So here’s my iteration. Jaden thinks he is a princess with a fairytale themed deck. Shenanigans ensue. Tw for bullying))

Jaden Syrus and Chumley walked to class. At this point, Jaden had gotten used to the odd looks from the Obelisks and the Ra students. They wanted to judge? Fine.

They had arrived at their spots in the lecture hall only to see Jaden’s seat had been completely vandalised. Stuff like “crazy”, “insane”, and “go back to your castle princess!”

Jaden frowned. Well, this soured his mood. He could hear the snickering from the Obelisks. But a princess does not cower to mere bullies. He took a piece of material from his bag and covered his part of the table with it. He then gracefully sat down with his back straight.

“A princess does not allow mere peasants get the better of them…” he said calmly.

Syrus sighed and sat next to him “you’re so cool, Jay!”

“Yeah! Jay! You’re the coolest princess around….” Chumley encouraged.

“I don’t even know why you keep calling him that… he’s not even a real princess!”

The three boys looked up to see a girl from Obelisk blue, wearing her hair up and thick make-up on her face.

“Oh! How do you do?” Jaden smiled and grabbed the ends of his Slifer red jacket so he could curtsy.

“You’re not a real princess!” She repeated. “I would know because I actually am one!”

“Yeah, you tell him, Rose!” Another Obelisk student called out.

“Is that so? Well, it’s wonderful to know there are other princesses at the academy!” Jaden smiled, “it’s lovely to meet you, Princess Rose.”

Rose twitched in anger “you’re a boy! You can’t be a princess!!”

“Hey!” Chumley spoke up, “don’t talk to Jaden like that! If he says he’s a princess, then he is one!!”

“Don’t get in trouble for my sake, sir painter” Jaden smiled and patted Chumley on the cheek. “But thank you for defending me….”

Jaden then turned to look at Rose. “I don’t see why you need to be upset. This castle is big enough for the both of us!”

Rose got offended again. “How dare you! You’re not a princess!! You’re just some loser playing pretend! I’m the only princess here!!”

“Well then, if you’re so upset about there being two princesses, then why don’t we settle this in a duel!”

Everyone turned to see Alexis standing up.

“Oh! Prince Alexis! Good day to you!” Jaden smiled and curtsied

“Good day to you too, Jaden” Alexis smiled and bowed back. She wouldn’t admit it out loud, but she did have fun playing along.

“Alexis, you’re with him!?” Rose asked, shocked.

“That doesn’t matter. What does matter is that if you’re really upset about this, then settle it with a duel!”

Rose scoffed, “fine! If that’s how you’re going to be about it, We’ll duel!! If I win, then you stop pretending and never refer to yourself as a princess again.”

“I accept, but if I win, then we will both be the princesses of this castle!” Jaden responded politely.

“This school isn’t a castle but whatever!” Rose scoffed.

“Jaden, are you sure?”

“A princess always accepts a fair competition. Besides, I don’t plan on losing.”

Before the duel, Chumley led Jaden to the Slifer dorms. “It’s not much, but I thought it would be suitable for a princess to duel in.”

He revealed the white and red ball gown based on the Slifer girls uniform, tailor-made for Jaden.

Jaden gasped before pulling Chumley into a hug. “Oh, this is beautiful thank you so much!! Did you make this!?”

“Me and Syrus!” Chumley smiled

“We wanted to do something to cheer you up after everything that’s been going on!”

Jaden pulled them both in to kiss them on the cheek. “Oh, thank you both so much!!”

He loved his subjects- no, his friends dearly.

Jaden put the gown on and headed to the duel arena.

Rose seemed to have a similar idea as she was waiting for him in a beautiful blue gown.

She had to admit she was taken aback by how elegant Jaden was. He gracefully stepped up onto the arena and curtsied. “Very well! Are we ready to duel?”

“Totally! I’ll go first!! I’ll play Beelzefrog in attack mode and place one card face down.”

“I play Cure Mermaid in attack mode.” She made quick work of Beelzefrog.

Rose- 3700

Jaden - 4000

“Fine, I play Unifrog. This allows me to attack you directly,” Rose retorted. Jaden gasped as he was attacked, but he recovered quickly

Rose - 3700

Jaden - 3600

“First, I activate Cure Mermaid’s special ability giving me 800 life points. Next, I summon Fairy Tail Snow! Isn’t she cute?” Jaden smiled

“Adorable…” Rose gasped, having never seen that card before.

“Fairy Tail Snow has a great special ability too! She can flip your frog back into face-down defence mode!”

“What?!”

“Now let’s battle, first Cure Mermaid attacks Unifrog! Next Fairy Tail Snow attacks!! Red Apple Drop!!”

The tiny squirrel-like creature created a giant red apple and yeeted it at Rose. Rose gasped in anger as her life points dropped.

Rose - 1850

Jaden - 4400

“Ugh, you’re so rude!!” Rose scoffed

“I’ve been nothing but cordial this whole duel. You’ve been rude to me, Princess Rose, which I must say, isn’t very princessly at all!”

“Shut UP! You’re not a princess!!”

“In any case, it’s your move….”

“Fine! I play frog resurrection. I send one Unifrog to the graveyard to get another up on my field! Then I’ll sacrifice it to summon Des Frog!”

“Oh no!! That’s ones stronger than both Fairy Tail Snow and Cure Mermaid!!” Syrus squeaked

“That’s right, and now I’ll be attacking your mermaid!!”

Cure Mermaid was eliminated, and Jaden lost another 400 life points.

“That’s not good….” Jaden mumbled.

“Next, I play the spell card Aquarium Stage, so even if you’re able to give your little squirrel a boost, you can’t touch my prince!!”

“Your prince?”

“That’s right! My Des Frog is my prince!! One day we’re going to run away together with my other princes too….”

“…eh?”

“Princes? Rose is just as crazy as the Slifer is!” An Obelisk shouted, no longer charmed by Rose.

“I-I’m not crazy!! My princes are real!!”

Some of the crowd started to jeer at Rose, causing her to become quite upset.

“I believe you, Rose!”

Rose looked up to see Jaden smiling kindly at her.

“Y-you do…?”

“Of course!!” Jaden smiled “but you shouldn’t insult other people when you get upset when you’re insulted… how do you think I felt when you were picking on me….”

“N-… not great, I guess.”

“And besides, you’re a princess! You shouldn’t let the words of inconsiderate bullies get the better of you… a princess should hold her head high and stick with what makes her happy!”

“W-wow… thanks, Jaden….”

“In any case, I think it’s time I end this!!

Rose - 1850

Jaden - 3600

“I play the spell card double summon!! With this card, I can summon more than once per turn!”

“First, I’ll summon a friend for Snow! Fairy Tail Rella!”

The small dog appeared in the arena, admiring her glass slippers.

“Why would Jaden summon her? She’s still not strong enough in comparison to Des Frog….” Syrus said, confused.

“The wonderful thing about her is every effect from a spell or trap card is targeted towards her, sparing Snow from your spell card,” Jaden explained.

“Oh, so that means Aquarium Stage’s effect is moot!” Chumley whispered.

“Even if that’s true! Snow still isn’t strong enough to attack my frog!”

“I understand that, which is why she will retire for someone who can! My Blizzard Princess!”

“What!?”

“Blizzard Princess has an effect that should I sacrifice a spell caster; I only need to tribute one monster to summon her! Guess what Snow is!”

“Oh no!!”

Jaden smirked and summoned Blizzard Princess.

Blizzard Princess smiled and waved her Ice Mace.

“Blizzard Princess, attack with blizzard crush!!”

Des Frog disappeared, and Rose lost 900 life points.

“It’s over, Rose! Fairy Tail Rella, Glass Slipper Strike!”

Rella tried to run only to trip and fall, her glass slipper flying and striking Rose.

Rose - 0

Jaden - 3600

The holograms cleared, and Jaden smiled, curtsying gracefully. “A good day to you….”

Rose had to admit, she was impressed. Jaden radiated power, elegance and grace.

“You really are a princess….”

Jaden smiled as he straightened up. But now it was Roses turn to curtsy.

“Princess Jaden… I’m so sorry that I was so rude to you… I hope you can find it in yourself to forgive me….”

“You’re already forgiven, Princess Rose!” Jaden smiled “but I do hope you introduce me to your other princes sometime….”

“I would love to! In fact, I can guarantee you’ll see them soon!” Rose smiled and pointed her finger “because from now on, you and I are rivals. I’m going to keep doing my best to be the top student! May the best princess win!”

Jaden smiled. “I accept your challenge!”

❀ HEADCANONS ❀

001. Illustrations

The room is messy. The kind of mess you look at and find yourself staring at the person who owns it. Mess, yet no dirt. Pillows stack at the bed’s feet, quilts are thrown on top of golden tables and rustic white chairs. A dress lays on top of the bed with a couple of daisies that somehow wandered their way from the quaint little flower garden by the window, all the way to the only spot available next to the dress.

( She means to wear them both. )

There’s a tiny corner that remains untouched. As if a hurricane of rose petals and clear cotton candy had swept past the space and the only thing that hadn’t been misplaced was that tiny corner next the the mattress. It lies on top of five golden lined shelves. A collection of colorful book spines with beautiful typography. Each containing stories of every kind with illustrations worth framing.

It started out as a gift from her father. As he arrived home from one of his many travels, he carried in his hand a gorgeous package of silver wrap and shimmering blue script. Inside, a story about a princess and a frog with beautiful drawings that showed the frog receiving a kiss from the princess. What his father didn’t know, was that the girl would not be so keen as to grow up and leave books with pictures on them behind. Instead, she came to cherish and collect them. Although she’s picked up a few favorite books that require more reading than admiring illustrations, there’s a very select group of titles she’d actually chose over a beautiful cover and a talented illustrator.

( Precisely the reason why an English major was out of the question. )

002. Business woman

A title that’s picked out from a pool of majors available on the city’s university. She walks past and through one of the building’s arcs. One of those that remain close to the edge of what one should define as the university campus. She walks past and through, and as she does you can see how it hangs above her loosely and eventually starts to slip off. Until she’s walked past the limiting sidewalk and it’s completely gone.

( It was not her first choice. )

The moment she steps out of the university, she gets to be herself again. Even though the girl is not entirely sure of what that even means. Junior year, business management major. There’s plenty of things to be done with such a title, though none of the things sound appealing just yet. The college life was a life she started with “undecided” as a label she wore proudly around her neck; eager to find the answers necessary to transform undecided into decided. A year later, she still wears the label around her neck, though it’s camouflaged by one chosen by her father. It would’ve been embarrassing to remain so publicly lost for more than a year.

It doesn’t seem to affect her all that much. If she has to study anything, business is actually not such a bad choice. It just pales in comparison to the things she gets to do once she’s able to close those dreadful textbooks.

( But her mother says those aren’t things you can study in college. )

003. Art

In the bedroom’s walls there’s artwork. Tiny and simple wood frames arranged in a straight line by the window, a golden baroque-inspired one sits by the desk where one would usually find a calendar or a planner, other pieces are put on display without the need of a frame, thick paper hanging above the bed frame. There’s flowers pressed into glass and cloth, some others pressed in between paper and made to adorn quotes and pictures. There’s watercolor pieces hanging about the room and interrupting journals that have never been properly filled out. There’s a mix of both and something more; collages narrating stories and offering an alternate reality to familiar scenes and famous faces.

( The keyword is artwork. )

The gallery contained within the room brings a smile to the girl’s face. Despite it not being all her own work, it all depicts the beauty of the world in one way or another. Beautiful and special. However, it’s not something she’d confidently present to a professional gallery, or even dare to sell online. The borrowed pieces perhaps deserve some recognition –Pieces made by friends or bought from strangers on one of those tiny art markets. Her own pieces are an entirely different story, though. They may look pretty enough to be put up on her wall, but in the girl’s eye, they lack the content that real art holds within.

Meaning and references that the girl can’t even begin to understand. You just find her staring at one of the paintings in the museum. A painting with multiple explosions of colors with an abstract shape. And you see a tear slide down her cheek, witness her very wide eyes turn a shade of pink. A tear she doesn’t quite understand where it comes from because while she can feel her heart moved, she can’t put a finger on what exactly did the moving just yet.

( And maybe she never will. )

004. Crossroads

They’re a funny thing. Curious. Very meaningful if you stop and think about it… The girl should know. She stands before one just now. Her hair is tied up into a messy ponytail, she looks like she just came from somewhere with her messy updo, dusty clothes and sweaty skin that glows with the sun. The one standing by her side confirms said assumption as they go from standing next to the girl, to standing a few steps ahead. They wave back, turn around and cross the street, but the girl remains put. Uncertain.

( A metaphor, obviously. )

It seems as she’s come all this way holding somebody’s hand. At first it was her mother and father who grabbed her hand as they introduced the world to her. Then it was Alice, always leading the way as they got themselves into the most amazing of adventures. Along the way a few people joined and took over from times to time. While the girl seemed to be perfectly capable of spending some time on her own, able to head into a little adventure of her own when no one else was available, in the end she always came back to her spot besides the curious blonde.

And so the girl stands before the crossroad. Watching as her dearest friend lets go of her hand to go down a path on her own. A path that she can’t follow through this time around. And she looks around and finds nobody else to hold onto this time around. Sure she has a few friends, her family of course, some other acquaintances. But it’s not time for her to find a replacement, it’s time for her to choose a path of her own.

( The thought of it makes her feel so terribly lost. )

005. Tattoo

A handful of lovely daisies drawn with colored ink and a needle right by her left ankle. Permanently on display since its position is so precise, it can’t be fully covered by your average sock. Neither can it be touched by your average jean’s lower hem. That is, if the girl is ever actually caught wearing something like an average jean and a pair of shoes that require socks reaching up to the ankle.

The story of how it came to be is one the girl thinks about with a smile, although whether the tattoo belongs in one of her cherished decisions or belongs on the pile of regrets, is something that’s yet being decided.

( Honestly, she’s come to be somewhat fond of it. )

A prime example of the girl’s way of life. Act first, think second. She’d been caught in the moment, not a meditated choice for neither in the group that walked into the tattoo shop, spent a couple of hours inside, and left with a new mark on their skin. See when a group holds your hand and walks your through, its easy to play along. It feels almost natural until they each go their separate ways after the deed is done and you’re left to think about the choices you ever so lightly made.

And so the girl stands before her mirror. Her blouse is loose and see-through whenever it’s touched by the sun’s light. Her shorts are pale and reach just below her bottom, leaving her legs completely uncovered. She stands with brown hair flowing past her shoulders and reaching the bottom of her lungs. Her eyes are curious as her head tilts to the side and her ankle twists in a funny looking way. Colorful daisies drawn on her skin are revealed before the mirror. It doesn’t sound like a choice she’d make without the rush of adventure driving her to it, yet she smiles at the sight.

( Maybe there’s more to her she’s yet to discover. )
